p.1 #1 · D1...worth having around?

I thought I posted this in the nikon forum but it dissapeared, musta misplaced it.... anywho Im looking for advice on buying a D1. I know they are ISO slobs, and pretty small image sensors, but for roughly 400 bucks is it worth having one around? thanks

Worth to take D1h over D1.
I do not complain about small megapixels.
Same size as Sensors with all Nikon DSLR.

He meant that the sensor produces small files I guess, not phisically speaking about the size of the sensor.

p.1 #5 · D1...worth having around?

I posted on this very thread yesterday... wierd. Well, the D1 is great. And since they are so cheap now, $350-$450 depending on condition, they, IMO, are good to keep. On another note, the D1H is a total sleeper, 25/40 raw/jpeg buffer, nicer menus, faster display, 1/3 stop iso, nicer noise after iso 800... but, I'm totally happy with my D1, in fact, I plan on getting another when I get my D200, but I will hardware (IR) cnvert it, since it is probably the easiest nikon D-slr to have converted.

But, on the question of "enough megapixels"... yeas, I have 20x30's to prove it. I absolutely love it.
